GameFAQs

GameFAQs is a website that hosts FAQs and walkthroughs for video games. It was created in November 1995 by Jeff Veasey and was bought by CNET Networks in May 2003. It is currently owned by CBS Interactive. The site has a database of video game information, cheat codes, reviews, game saves, box art images and screenshots, almost all of which is submitted by volunteer contributors. The systems covered include the 8-bit Atari platform through modern consoles, as well as computer games. Submissions made to the site are reviewed by the site's current editor, Allen "SBAllen" Tyner.
GameFAQs hosts an active message board community, which has a separate discussion board for each game in the site's database, along with a variety of other boards. From 2004 till 2012, most of the game-specific boards were shared between GameFAQs and GameSpot, another CBS Interactive website. However, on March 23, 2012, it was announced the sites will once again start to separate content. On May 7, 2012 the shared GameFAQs run message boards went read-only on GameSpot. The site also runs a daily opinion poll and tournament contests, as well as an annual Character Battle.
GameFAQs has been positively reviewed by ''The Guardian'' and ''Entertainment Weekly''. In 2009, GameFAQs.com was one of the 300 highest-trafficked English-language websites according to Alexa.
== History ==

GameFAQs was started as the ''Video Game FAQ Archive'' on November 5, 1995,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What is GameFAQs? )〕 by gamer and programmer Jeff Veasey, who says he wanted to collect the numerous online guides and FAQs into one centralized location. Hosted on America Online, it originally served as a mirror of Andy Eddy's FTP FAQ archive.〔Andy Eddy's archive was formerly located at ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/vi/vidgames/faqs〕 The initial version of the site had approximately 10 pages and 100 FAQs.〔"Interview with Jeff Veasey" (2002-03-02). ''(The Gaming Files )''. WXBH AM-1190 (Cobleskill, New York).〕 In 1996, the site moved to its current domain at gamefaqs.com and changed its name to ''GameFAQs''.〔 At this time, GameFAQs listed fewer than 1000 FAQs and guides and was updated on an irregular basis.
During the following months, the site grew in content and in design; two different styles were introduced in early 1997 to accommodate the support of tables in web browsers (or the lack thereof). Two key features of the site—the game search engine and the contributor recognition pages—were planned at this time.
